The Confluence version at the ASF works well now. It's a reliable WYSIWG
version.
One of the big advantages of Confluence is it allows finely grained
permissions. This is not only useful with spam.
Another advantage is it has, even at the ASF, a lot of available plugins
This said it can be sometimes a bit slow, and creating long complicated page can turn to a be nightmare especially if you put a lot of images. At
least now you never lose anything, it has a very good automated versionning system...

PS: I don't think anybody is a Confluence huge fan ;)

Does Confluence work well for developer topics though? Because I guess
we will want to use it for FM3. I had to use it on workplace, a
relatively old version, and it was a nightmare because it gets
confused by the odd stuff we programmers write... and yes, there are
some escaping rules and all, but over all it wasn't practical to use,
plus it was buggy... though yet again maybe nowadays it's better.

We have never requested a wiki from infra... so I as far as know we
don't have it yet.
Should we request one? It can be useful to work together on a shared
document like in this case. Suggestions/proposals/preferences?
